Breakfast English Muffin Pizzas


Breakfast pizza... great at any time of the day.




Breakfast pizzas have always intrigued me. You know eggs and pizza just don't seem like they should be mentioned in the same sentence.  But as I said they have always intrigued me.

So I decided that this was something that I just had to give into and see what it was all about.

We went on a little road trip last weekend. As I mentioned on a post last week Mike and I share the same birthday which we celebrated last Wednesday. So we decided that a little get away was in order to do a little celebrating.



We left on Friday after having a bite to eat for lunch. Guess what was on the menu for lunch. You're right these breakfast pizzas. Breakfast for lunch... yeah, I am that kind of gal. I love breakfast foods at any time of the day.

So as I was mentioning I made these for our lunch, at first I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to add to the eggs, then I noticed that I had pepperoni in the freezer. I love pepperoni on pizza, so I decided why not on some breakfast pizzas.

I never thought of tomatoes and eggs either, until I made my egg and tomato open face sandwich, and you know what... it works. Just like the pizza sauce that is added to the English muffins for these pizzas.

The thing about these pizzas you can add what you like best. I made these simple, some English muffins, pizza sauce, pepperoni, eggs, cheese, and some seasonings and you have a delicious hearty breakfast or for that matter lunch or dinner, whatever you please.
